Boro have received a full allocation of 4,000 tickets for the fixture and can also purchase tickets for just £5 ahead of increases on match-day. They will housed on the Midland Road side of the stadium.

City chief executive officer, Ryan Sparks said: "We are delighted to be able to offer heavily discounted tickets for what is a massive cup clash against Championship opposition.

"We pride ourselves on accessibility, and hope this deal will enable as many Bradfordians as possible to turn out for what should be a great occasion.

"Our football club will always have a special connection with the League Cup and, of course, this is the first time we have appeared in its third round for almost a decade.

"To celebrate, in what are challenging economic times, ourselves and Middlesbrough have agreed to make this fixture as affordable as possible for home and away supporters.

"We have had some incredible cup crowds at Valley Parade over the years, and it would be fantastic to see another packed-out attendance of over 20,000, while hopefully booking our place in round four for the first time since that memorable 2012/13 season.”
